Retrurn to Reinhart...

[heliman]

This evening I made another batch of Reinhart's ABED ciabatta recipe and it turned out fantastically. I really enjoy the texture that the olive oil produces too. It got the "best" tick of approval from the wife - first time ever!

Flour was Superb Baker's Flour (Allied Mills) and the rest as per the recipe.

I once again used the baguette tray to hold the shape. I also made a pot of butternut soup to have with the bread as the weather has turned and we had some rain today.

Hi Rossco!

Looks really nice!

I usually do Peter's ciabatta also though often a bit wetter. I did Jason's yesterday. It is 96% hydration and so light! (I did it because I wanted bread in four hours and didn't have time to retard!) Need to work on high hydration sourdough ciabatta! Will try to get pics up later!

Thanks for the kind words Jed & Jay...

Ciabatta is a really great bread to make. I have really learned a lot from making it - but I have also learned how little I know about bread making in general! It is definitely a science - with so many variables that it's incredible. That's probably what makes it fun!
